Mine is people using are instead of our. I hear this all the time from social media, news reporters, and I see in in writing. Instead of our, they use are as if they forgot the word our exists.

    Internet search has gotten stupider

    Used to be I could always find exactly what I wanted with a quick google

    Now I usually have to go into the second page or change my terms a lot before getting there.

      Google is so bad now and has been for a while, it’s tough to believe its name is still synonymous with search.

      I’ve been toying with the idea of using Kagi, but paying for a search engine is still such a foreign concept for me. I think if you can find a good SearXNG instance you’ll have a much better time.

        I am very happy with Kagi. Can recommend. In the end someone has to pay for the service. With Kagi I know I don’t pay with my data but with money.

      I’d highly recommend Kagi! You can customise your search results as well, so you can make sure some websites show up more often than others (or even not at all), or higher up/lower down on the list.
